-
Brennan_UGA (@bigdawgfm) reported@ForcadoUALG @PaulTassi @Forbes This is a whataboutism. Marvel Tokon isn't even out yet. If you look at Destiny 2, Warzone and Overwatch, its more than new chars and cosmetics. Its new modes, new levels, seasonal stories/themes, limited time content. Just having DLC is not = live service
-
elias ✧ deltarune spoilers (tagged) (@herlockkisser) reporteddoes anyone else have this problem with overwatch where all the ui just disappears out of nowhere. it only ever happens to me in competitive games,, i hit no hotkeys or anything and shift+tab to pull up the steam thing doesn't fix it. am i just built to be an unranked warrior
-
Starly (@DokiwatchJuno) reportedBlizzard needs to fix the shop, one of the perks of game pass with Overwatch was getting cosmetics but now we don’t get nearly as much as before since if a skin wasn’t in the shop the previous season, you can’t use it the next
-
Jlopez (@Jlopez9417) reported@Chai_Splat I have a slight input lag on the Switch 2 version of Overwatch 2. Is it only me?
-
BIG HABIBI ENERGY!!! (@justjoddat_ttv) reportedI haven't backed out of any Stadium game on purpose - it's been driver crashes and me trying to figure out the problem and now I'm on a 1 hour suspension. I couldn't even rejoin my game when I IMMEDIATELY relaunched Overwatch.
-
💾 (@girltwink9000) reportedI can only watch videos and draw and play overwatch on it because for aome reason sam and max would rather lag on it before overwatch does
-
Leon (@bobafettyaoi) reported@rodiprimes yeah I figured 😭😭 tho what’s funny is that I’ve had no problem adjusting to paladins on pc from getting used to the controls with overwatch
-
Jstepp (@jstepp5220) reported@_foulDOOM Same issue I had with overwatch. This game needs communication and people only talk when you are having your worst game in a month lololol
-
shark (@GREATWHlTESHART) reportedik this is such a non issue but i wish overwatch had more slots for emotes like i have so many mercy emotes i want to equip but can only put 4 😔
-
S2D (@S2D_OW) reportedam i bad at overwatch or is everyone else on my team the problem
-
🎀Clown🎀 (@Edgyparappa) reported@genebbyy Heh now if they would just sneakily add my oc into overwatch I’ll fix everyone’s problems
-
1 Typ oder so (@1Typoderso) reported@CounterStrike RIP Dangerzone RIP Operations RIP 128 tick RIP Flying Scoutsman RIP Overwatch RIP stable frametimes and latency RIP Achievements RIP distinct CS look, now replaced by soulless comic style Fix the missing content, hitreg and cheater pandemic, then we can talk.
-
Paperboy (@Reniru1337) reported@Roszaii Thats the Problem with this whole „OW Porn is bigger then the Game itself“ Overwatch will never recover from that and will always have that Title. Normal conversations are nearly impossible for this Game and Characters
-
Symbiote Serg (@SymbioteSerg) reported@DarkDragonMasta You’re right, the other live service games are charging $10 for recolors and $25-$30 for costumes (Fortnite, Overwatch, Diablo). Name a live service game that is cheaper than MR? BP next month? All BPs in all these games give maximum value, that’s not even the same comparison.
-
tya (@wsndily) reportedPlayed my first comp game in overwatch in awhile won but someone at the end said streak broken and i knew I had to get off after that one win
-
Jar Boy (@JarBoy15) reported@DrValince @DelusionPosting @Asmongold Even successful games get dumped cus of wokeness. Look at overwatch. Instead of fixing issues and making the game better they kept trying to deflect outrage and complaints by outing another character as gay
-
******* Widow 𓆩♡𓆪 (@lesbiianwidow) reportedwhen flats said this game is about mental it really is, this guy had bad mental every game i played with him. like i understand you wanna win but yelling at your team isn’t gonna fix the problem and i feel like if everyone in overwatch had that mentality it would be a better game
-
tate! 🍋 (@byeolisjjoong) reported@whimsyuri most sane reaction to overwatch not working:
-
lin ♡ yoongi (@93s97) reportedyou guys fight tooth and nail about this girl but the reality is there and we see the undertones don’t act tone deaf to avoid the conversation that’s there, is it like other games? no, but does overwatch have a problem with the way they do **** like this, YES.
-
Bortles (@Bort1es) reported@MarvelRivals overwatch 2. Killing you. It’s not for character reasons. Fix the match making
-
Gunter (@Gunter_Gman) reportedHow greatness is inevitable: video games. Why? I became top % in many games: 0.5% of 20 million active players in Valorant 15% in league 10% Rainbow 6 siege 10% in Halo infinite 35% on Overwatch in 6 hours. 25% on Fortnite in 12 hours. Another time I won roughly 20-25 games in a row on Valorant via pure **********. I WENT FROM GOLD 2 TO A3 IN 2 WEEKS WHILST LAGGING 100-1000Ms PEAKS. I know how to be great. I know how to conquer. I take what’s mine ruthlessly.

kholby 🇵🇸 (@SAINTFIREN0X) reporteddid the overwatch servers just crash for a second…
-
Anarchy🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈 (@EleutheriaFPS) reportedHonestly taking a break from Overwatch to play a bit of Apex felt really good. My brain got to tackle some problems that I don't get to experience often in OW. And I had to relearn some mechanics as well. So even if I was screaming my head off a lot, it was oddly therapeutic.

lex targaryan (@ThisActuallyLex) reportedOverwatch fix your trash *** ******* servers my god
-
JAZ 🔮🎇 (@JazCelest) reportedMy English is so broken, because I'd absorved non stop words and accents of every english speaking country... I blame nijisanji and the aussie overwatch content creators.

🍉VM106🍉 (@VannaMontana106) reportedTo anyone who plays OW2 on switch i need some help. . Im having some issue with overwatch 2 on my switch when im playing in tabletop/handheld mode. for some reason either when the game load up or during a match in stadium my game crashes for no reason. I removed the software-
-
bungie (@bungie765) reported@JimSerna1 @StreetFighter I don’t believe so. SF was collaborating with Overwatch and monster hunter at the same time so there shouldn’t be any problem with multiple collabs happening at one time
-
Buddy (@Buddy_duddy_) reported@Greenpig117 >overwatch players came over Bro we were there day 1😭😭😭 And ow players knew where problems might appear and were right. I want rivals to succeed long term but holy ****, not with this attitude
-
anyka✨ (@_celestialss) reported@KurtJP35 I can a guarantee they saw the success of Overwatch since this happened in 2017 and pivoted because of that. They truly are scared of doing their own thing and would rather chase trends in service of making more money

SOFTIE ₊˚ʚ ᗢ₊˚✧ ゚. 🩷🌸 (@SoftieF2P) reportedI am so grateful to of been seen by Overwatch again. However I am completely heart broken I cannot receive the copy. 🥹💔
